PARTICIPATION OF UNAUTHORIZED INDIVIDUALS IN PRE-ELECTION CAMPAIGN
2016-07-27 Under the organic law of Georgia, the Election Code of Georgia, public officers of state authorities are prohibited from conducting and participating in election campaigning during normal business hours and/or when they are directly performing their duties (para.4, Article 45). During the reporting period, ISFED didn’t find any instances of public officers attending campaign meetings of political parties during normal business hours; however, we found that public officers in certain municipalities used their Facebook pages for campaigning in favor of the Georgian Dream – Democratic Georgia during working hours.
